devuan daedalus: nothing is running in wine

durham · 2023-11-19 00:53:20

Nothing is running in wine. I've not used wine in devuan in a while so I am not sure what changed. That said, I recently finally got around to an upgrade to the latest Stable version of devuan.

The error message seems the same for all programs I've tried to run (in this next, an attempt to run guild wars, a windows game that up to how has always worked fine in wine):

The files are there. Not sure why wine can't find file <whatever>when fie <whatever> is right there.

Googling indicates that others have had this problem, but the solutions were unclear, though many results indicated that installing winetricks would fix it.

I then installed winetricks. Not sure what the difference is. Still nothing runs, so winetricks is not the trick? I'm out of ideas. Can anyone advise, please?

Thank you.

Are there files in "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32" ?
I would proabaly start with a fresh wine setup.

$ mv .wine .wine_old      # backup
$ winecfg

try using wine-staging direct from wine repos. Follow instructions for debian installation.

Thank you for the replies.

The "missing" files are there. Checking the file from the first error message:

 $ find $HOME -type f | grep -i "zlib1\.dll"
/home/bob/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/zlib1.dll
$

In the meantime, I tried something that I knew would not work and it worked. I have multiple distros on this computer, so I, still in Devuan, ran the wine from the Slackware install. It runs fine.

I will check out the staging thing. Thank you.

EDIT: staging version from winehq.org works. Yay! Thank you.
